Dear all, We are thrilled to announce our upcoming online course on Adaptation Genomics, taking place from June 24th to June 28th, 2024.
Course website: https://www.physalia-courses.org/courses-workshops/courseadaptationgenomics/
This course offers an introduction to the study of the genomic basis of adaptation through population genomics approaches. Participants will explore the analysis of both sequence and structural genetic variation, covering everything from raw genomic data handling to advanced methods for detecting candidate genomic regions involved in local adaptation. Hands-on exercises will impart essential bioinformatics skills and provide practical experience in manipulating, visualizing, and interpreting genomic data patterns.
Participants will gain proficiency in handling genomic data, calculating population genetic statistics, visualizing genetic population structure, and detecting genomic regions linked to adaptive divergence or local adaptation. They will also learn to identify signatures of selection in the genome, detect putative structural variants of adaptive significance, and understand the potential and limitations of different methods for studying the genomic basis of adaptation.
